By replacing the battery , the CPU program becomes corrupted and some items including immobiliser and your items will not function properly until a scanner is used to reset the CPU program. IT will only take a few minutes to see if it works.

SOURCE: key fob no longer unlocks car doors or trunk

you may have to replace the remotes and then have them reprogramed for the car because they do go bad but if there is an autozone near you they will test the remotes for free

Hi what is happening is that your turn off your car and left the wheels turned to one side and specially if your car is parke in a hill what you have to do is to force the steering wheel to the same direction of your wheels this will free up the ignition switch it is going to be hard let me tell you but it will work and this is why your shift don't work once you have the ignition switch free then your shift will work again

Why do the doors on my 2004 nissan quest sl keep unlocking by themselves even when the van is off?

It may be that water/moisture has gotten in behind the door panels...do you notice that it worsens in damp(er) weather? The car unlocks by itself if you leave the key in the ignition and you try and lock the doors.

Or somebody has the same coded fob (unlikely).

You might want to reprogram the remotes if you determine that the area behind the door panels is dry and there are no corroded wires, etc.

Good Luck.

2004 Nissan Quest Remote Programming Note: You must have all remotes on hand when performing this procedure. Any remotes not used during this procedure will become inactive.
1. Close and lock all doors with the driver's side power lock switch located on drivers door panel.
2. Insert key into ignition (DON'T TURN) and remove it from the ignition key cylinder at least 6 times within 10 seconds (this will need to be done at approximately one second intervals). You may need to insert and remove the key up to 10 or 12 times until your hazard lamps flash. PLEASE NOTE: Withdraw key completely from ignition cylinder each time. If this procedure is performed too fast or too slow the system will not enter programming mode.
3. Insert key into ignition and turn to the ACC position.
4. Within 5 seconds, push the LOCK button on the keyless remote. Your hazard lamps will flash. PLEASE NOTE: Do not press the button on the remote more than one time or the programming will not be successful.
5. If there are any remaining remotes (including working ones), Unlock then Lock all doors using the switch on drivers door panel. Within 5 seconds of locking and unlocking doors press LOCK button on the next remote. Your hazard lamps will flash. Repeat this step for each remote (including any working remotes).
6. When all remotes have been programmed turn the key to the OFF position, remove keys from the ignition, unlock doors using the driver's side power lock/unlock switch and open the driver side door. Test all remotes.

Key remote wont work even with new batteries

The remote likely needs to be reprogramed. If you have both remotes you will need to take these to the dealer and have them reprogramed.
